Ran well in better-class Punchestown handicap latest; should go well

Remains unexposed over fences on just third attempt and yard couldn't be in better form

Trip/ground to suit here and return to form wouldn't surprise in a weak enough race

Good recent hurdles run augurs well but this stamina test could find her out

Grade 2 hurdles winner is 0-5 chasing and stamina concerns on handicap debut

5lb higher than when winning at Punchestown but don't rule out back chasing
